Lusanda Spiritual Group: Lusanda Mcinga<br />
Spend an afternoon at a gospel concert, the main event being the powerful voices and unique gospel albums of the biggest<br />
selling gospel group based in the Eastern Cape. Lusanda Mcinga, award-winning gospel singer and the group’s leader, is one of the<br />
country’s most sought after gospel singers. This determined and ambitious woman knew that her music was not to be confined to<br />
the Eastern Cape. In 1998 Gallo released her first album under their label. UNGABABEK’TYALA went on to reach gold. Since then<br />
the Lusanda Spiritual Group has released 18 albums, most of them platinum.<br />
Date: Saturday 17 June Time: 14:30 Venue: Lukhanyo Primary School Tickets: R110 / R80 (early bird)<br />
Swing, Sing and All That Jazz: Ian Smith Big Band<br />
Prepare for a musical roller coaster ride from early swing to funk and pop with everything in between.<br />
The standard Big Band sound is generated by four trumpets, four trombones, five saxophones and a rhythm section. Although Big<br />
Band is renowned for the likes of Glenn Miller, Benny Goodman, Count Basie and Duke Ellington, vocal icons must also get credit<br />
for the continued Big Band tradition.<br />
You will be treated to songs and arrangements from all of the above, plus exciting Latin American and Afro Cuban pieces. And then<br />
there will be some Miriam Makeba and Nina Simone from the young lady of song Adelia Douw. Ian Smith may well give us some<br />
Sinatra and even pick up his trumpet!<br />
